Listen to an interview with Mark Kohler, author of "Lawyers Are Liars: The Truth About Protecting Our Assets." He is also an attorney, certified public accountant and entrepreneur. He'll go over health care tax strategies that can save you money, like the Health Savings Account (HSA), strategic insurance plans, writing off medical expenses, and more. According to him, an HSA can be used to not only pay for your health care needs and shelter your money tax-free, but also be self-directed like an IRA to use the money for buying various kinds of investments (like real estate and stocks) that can grow in value, tax-free.

I just had a heating specialist look at a heater replacement for one of my clients. It appears that the new stimulus bill is going to create an opportune time for home owners to replace old appliances. Specifically speaking, ABC heating and cooling just broke it down for me on an average 2000 square foot home. They showed me how an 80% low efficiency furnace is still the cheapest product. Yet, the $1500 credit will make the highest efficiency furnace (95% efficient) so that it is only $20 more than the mid-range model (90% efficient).

You lease the land and purchase the home - enjoying all the benefits of being a homeowner: from taxes to equity that builds. The cost of the home is considerably much lower than market value.
